Question for Bobbi
 

Hello Bobbi,

I reviewed the numerous sites you listed. Some I have been too. Thanks
My hit is that you have done extensive research. Would like to talk with you, I'm looking everywhere for knowledgable people. Having intense pain in neck, throat, teeth (have TMJ), back of head and lower back. Have talked with "experts"-say no spinal stenosis, although my mri's of cervical and lumbar spine showed some mild stenosis in several vertabra. Havin very strange cold and numb sensations on bottom of feet, sometimes in calfs and recently in both forearms on the sides with a week feeling. Pretty damn distraught and looking for more info. Soma medication helps with lyrica, getting steroid injections in neck for facet degeneration. All comments welcome thanks.

I can't recall all of the possible symptoms of radiculopathy and don't know whether you may have had an EMG coupled with a NCV, yet, if you haven't, that's something that your primary doc(s) might want to consider. I've had two-rounds of EMG/NCV - and it was done by a neurologist, which is my preference.

You may have nerve entrapment or compressed nerves - i.e., the numbness or loss of sensation.

It's definitely something I'd be bringing up to doctors until the underlying cause is figured out :).
